N-butylidenephthalide (BP) exhibits its antitumor effect in a variety of cancer cell lines. However, little is known about its effects on prostate cancer. The objective of this study was to obtain additional insights into the mechanisms involved in BP induced cell death in human prostate cancer cells.

View SamplesTazarotene-induced gene 1 (TIG1), also named as retinoic acid receptor responder 1 (RARRES1), is a retinoid inducible type II tumor suppressor gene; the TIG1B isoform inhibits growth and invasion of cancer cells. Expression of TIG1B is frequently downregulated in various cancer tissues; however, the expression and activities of the TIG1A isoform has yet to be analyzed. This study investigated the effects of TIG1A and TIG1B isoforms on gene expression profiles of colon cancer cells. TIG1A, TIG1B and control stable clones derived from HCT116 colon cells were established using the GeneSwitch system. TIG1 isoform expression was induced upon 5 micro Molar of mifepristone (MFP) treatment for 24 hr. Biological triplicate samples were prepared and gene expression profiles were determined by microarray using human genome HGU133 plus 2 array (Affymatrix). Upon induction of TIG1A and TIG1B expression for 24 hr, a total of 129 and 55 genes were significantly altered, respectively. Of the genes analyzed, 23 and 6 genes were up- and downregulated, respectively in both TIG1A and TIG1B expressing cells.

View SamplesPhysiological, anatomical, and clinical laboratory analytic scoring systems (APACHE, Injury Severity Score (ISS)) have been utilized, with limited success, to predict outcome following injury. We hypothesized that a peripheral blood leukocyte gene expression score could predict outcome, including multiple organ failure, following severe blunt trauma.

View SamplesOligonucleotide and complementary DNA microarrays are being used to subclassify histologically similar tumours, monitor disease progress, and individualize treatment regimens. However, extracting new biological insight from high-throughput genomic studies of human diseases is a challenge, limited by difficulties in recognizing and evaluating relevant biological processes from huge quantities of experimental data. Here we present a structured network knowledge-base approach to analyse genome-wide transcriptional responses in the context of known functional interrelationships among proteins, small molecules and phenotypes. This approach was used to analyse changes in blood leukocyte gene expression patterns in human subjects receiving an inflammatory stimulus (bacterial endotoxin). We explore the known genome-wide interaction network to identify significant functional modules perturbed in response to this stimulus. Our analysis reveals that the human blood leukocyte response to acute systemic inflammation includes the transient dysregulation of leukocyte bioenergetics and modulation of translational machinery. These findings provide insight into the regulation of global leukocyte activities as they relate to innate immune system tolerance and increased susceptibility to infection in humans.
